The Yuma Landing Restaurant is hosting a 'Santa gift drive-by' from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Santa's sleigh will land at Yuma's historic landing site and will be handing out special gifts for any kids who come by. 

"I don't think the children of Yuma got a fair shake this year, so I had a little talk with Santa Claus and I thought maybe they deserve a little bit better," said Santa's Helper Yvonne Peach. "Yuma is my heart and I don't know how to explain it. I just like to give back, people need to give back." 

Social distancing will be enforced and it is recommended that you wear a mask when you drive by for your gift.
